Boutique Homes – Abode Inspiration Studio (open by appointment only)

We had such an incredible experience with our Interior Designer Appointment in Geelong, and we truly couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out! From start to finish, Darby Kelly made the whole process smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free, especially as first-time home builders with no clue where to begin! We were quite indecisive at times, but Darby never made us feel rushed or inconvenient. She was always so patient and kind, answering every single question in detail, even when it came to rough pricing estimates, which we know aren’t easy. Her input helped us budget wisely and confidently make decisions we feel great about. We’ve been emailing back and forth with her for weeks before our Abode Tour and actual Color Appointment, and every step of the way, she’s gone above and beyond. She even sent us a flat lay of our updated selections weeks after our final appointment, so thoughtful! We brought our 9-month-old baby along to the appointment and felt so welcomed. Honestly, this whole experience has been one for the memory books. Thank you so much, Darby, you’ve truly made such a big impact on our first home journey! You may not realise just how much your support meant to us and how deeply it touched us. Your kindness, patience, and care made this experience unforgettable, we’ll always look back on it with happiness because of you.

We are so thankful to have had Darby as our interior designer during our appointment. As first-time builders, we were feeling overwhelmed by the number of choices and weren’t entirely sure what we wanted. Darby was absolutely lovely - she was incredibly helpful, patient, and made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. We walked away feeling confident and excited about our selections and can’t wait to see everything come to life. Thank you so much again, Darby!

We had such a wonderful experience with our Interior Designer Appointment at Boutique Homes in Geelong. Our designer, Sarah Psomas, made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. We came along as a family—my wife, myself, and our daughter who wasn’t feeling well that day—but Sarah was so understanding and made us all feel comfortable throughout. She was incredibly patient and supportive when it came to our color selections, taking the time to explain different options and helping us see how everything would come together. Thanks to her guidance, we felt confident in our decisions and are truly happy with the outcome. What stood out the most was Sarah’s warmth and professionalism. She went above and beyond to make sure we left feeling excited about our home journey. We’re so grateful for her help and would highly recommend both Boutique Homes and Sarah to anyone starting this process.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ella for my colour appointment in Docklands. Ella was incredibly patient and provided very helpful advice and suggestions. I would highly recommend Ella to anyone about to have their colour appointment. The showroom also had a large amount of samples on display which allowed me to feel confident in my selections.

We had the best experience with Lucinda. She was very prepared for our colour selection appointment which saved a lot of time. We found her expertise and professionalism to be so impressive and we really benefited from her suggestions. We really trusted her and walked away feeling so confident in our selections. Can’t wait to see it all come together!

We recently worked with Brianna as our interior designer for our Boutique Homes build, and she was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Brianna was nothing but lovely, helpful, and incredibly easy to work with. She made the whole process straightforward and stress-free, guiding us through every choice with patience and great advice. Thank you so much, Brianna, and the team at Abode Inspiration Studio! You all made our design experience a genuinely enjoyable one! P.S coffee is fabulous!
